What 5 Production Amps would you buy if you won the lottery?

Late '70's or early '80's 2203 or 2204.
Mesa Boogie Trem-O-Verb
Diezel VH4
true black face Deluxe Reverb
mid '60's Vox AC30
Fryette UltraLead (new version)

What new version? The circuit hasn't changed in 15-20+ years, last I knew. Did they make recent changes?
 
Of actual current, can be bought "off the shelf" amps;

- Morris Brownout (least "off the shelf" of the group
- Mesa MkV
- Fender DRRI
- Vox AC30
- Probably a Revv Generator Mk 3

And I would wind up playing one of them 98% of the time.
 
Lottery or no, I'll probably be buying all these at some point in the future...

Ground Zero Hellion
Mezzabarba Mzero
Red Seven Leviathan
Fryette UL mk2 (if it ever gets released)
Bogner Uberschall - new version (if it ever gets released)

I don’t know much about the red seven. But I know one was for sale in my area recently and it looked cool. I think they wanted half of a deez for it sooooo I didn’t pursue it
 
Lottery wins would make me no difference.

I already have most of the amps I want now.

Of course that could change, but I'm relatively happy with all I have, and don't even use all of it all the time!!

Plus it's absolutely stupid for a 64yr old fossil like me to buy much of anything else. Random death is statistically more likely now than in my 20's. Not that I have a death wish mind you........."just sayin"......per that corny old cliche'.

My wife told me the other day "you know....you're getting old, ya really need to think about off-loading some of this junk. If you die on me, it's a lot to deal with".

I told her, sorry....but I'm not selling a damned thing. I'm going to enjoy as much of it as I can before I have to permanently check out!!

Some of the stash in various states. Recently put new furniture in the former "amp room", so most of it has been relocated to a couple of closets.

None of it is really that remarkable, but keeps most of the GAS in check. Some amps go unplayed for over a year at times......but when one finally makes it back into rotation, it feels like getting a new amp.
